Best Bavarian Restaurants in Munich

Nürnberger Bratwurst Glöckl am Dom
The specialty served at the Nürnberger Bratwurst Glöckl am Dom doesn’t originally come from Munich, but from the Franconian (also part of the Free State of Bavaria) town of Nuremberg. Nevertheless, the Nürnberger Bratwurst Glöckl am Dom is one of the most popular Bavarian restaurants in central Munich, especially with tourists.
Address: Frauenplatz 9, 80331 München


Andechser am Dom
This restaurant has won numerous awards and it is frequented by many well-known locals. Famous for its schnitzel, the Andechser also boasts incredible roast pork with a dark Andechser beer sauce (Schweinsbraten aus dem „Bayrischen Land“ mit Andechser Dunkelbiersoße).  Also recommended are the grilled Bavarian Duck (Halbe Bayrische Bauernente vom Grill) and Strips of Veal in a Cream Sauce with Spätzle (Kalbsrahmgeschnetzeltes mit Spätzle).
Address: Frauenplatz 7, 80331 München


Zum Dürnbräu

It has retained its popularity over the centuries by consistently delivering homeland classics while adding modern flavors.
Address: Dürnbräugasse 2, 80331 München

 

Zum Franziskaner

Zum Franziskaner has a laid-back vibe that makes you feel like you’re dining in someone’s living room. The central location means it’s always full, and it’s a popular spot after the opera. There are two menus, a German one and an English one which doesn’t include all of the same dishes as the German ones, so if you want to try something *really* Bavarian ask for the German menu as well and see if your server can help you.
Address: Residenzstraße 9, 80333 München

Wirtshaus Maximilian

When you think of Wirtshaus, you think of Lederhosen, Oktoberfest, and the height of Bavarian kitsch. But Maximilian manages to promote tradition without being overly cheesy.
Sure, there’s a certain amount of pine about the place and schnitzel is on offer, but everything else has been given a modern makeover.
The atmosphere is light and airy, there are usually an impressive 30 to 40 German beers on tap or bottle, plus German and Austrian wines, and the menu boasts twists on traditional sausages, salads, schnitzel, and pretzels.
Address: Westermühlstraße 32, 80469 München

Best Asian Restaurants in Munich

 

LeDu Dim Sum & Bar
Completely understated, you might walk past this tiny store and miss out on one of the best Chinese dishes in Munich. Though they specialize in making “happy dumplings” — both meat and veggie — the thing to order is a “jian bing.” Imagine a crêpe meets breakfast burrito, but then switch it to rich hoisin-style flavors and pancakes with a slight crunch.
Address: Klenzestraße 62, 80469 München

Best Italian Restaurants in Munich

 

Casa Sarda, Schwabing
Located in one of the small buildings that make up Elisabethmarkt, it is amazing just how much (good) food is produced in the limited working space. Serving Sardinian cuisine, guests can normally choose between 3 – 4 pasta dishes, but owner Mario Tola is also open to requests and suggestions!   The antipasti is a must and include octopus salad,
stuffed pepperoncini and delicious vegetables.
Address: Elisabethpl. 13, 80796 München

 

L’Assaggino, Glockenbachviertel
The small entrance of L’Assaggino is easy to miss, sandwiched between other bars, shops, and bistros on the busy Frauenhoferstraße. Tip: keep an eye out for the red and white sign reading “pizza, pasta, vino” and the windows steamed up by boiling pans. Owner Salvatore Cavallo will talk you through the wines and food on offer, and tell you tales from the hood. No frills, no website, no social media – just good honest Italian cooking.
Address: Fraunhoferstraße 7, 80469 München

La Cambusa
Because the ristorante was so small when it first opened, it was given the name of La Cambusa (the galley). Meanwhile, Umberto Nasuti’s ristorante has expanded, and merely the wooden ships on the walls and the brass ship’s lamps are reminiscent of that time. The menu offers good traditional fare on a very high level and includes seasonal offers. The staff are always attentive, the waiters are often up for banter, and even first-time guests are given the feeling of belonging to the family.
Address: Cosimastraße 4, 81927 München

Limoncello
This restaurant is a right choice if you are in the mood for Italian and Mediterranean cuisines. Most people think that you can order tasty che and nicely cooked tiramisu here. It’s nice to try delicious limoncello or good wine. Based on the reviewers’ opinions, waiters offer great espresso. Guests don’t highly appreciate spaghetti at Limoncello.
Address: Verdistraße 92, 81247 München

Ganga
